I purchased a 1 Gb/s USB-Ethernet adapter that can be driven by the ax88179_178a driver that is part of the Linux kernel (loaded as a kernel module). NB U-Boot has a built-in NIC driver that it uses to handle TFTP. Further investigation by directly connecting to the ix2-200 via TTL and having U-Boot pull up the link also results only in a 100 Mb/s connection, giving further corroboration of a hardware issue. Nonetheless, the USB ports are working fine. Disassembling the device and inspecting the circuitry does show some corrosion around the diodes leading to each of the three USB ports.

Nonetheless, I have the following udev rule set up:Ĭode: Select all ACTION="add", SUBSYSTEM="net", KERNEL="eth*", RUN+="/usr/bin/ethtool -K %k tx off sg off tso off" irkwood-dt that explicitly disables TSO, but it is not included in the PKGBUILD anymore. ?h=v4.18.5), as the driver's version number is stoically kept at 1.4. I am unable to say for sure if any of the patches I found addressing these issues have made it to main-line (. Notably with TSO corruption and unaligned packages. Scouring the internet did reveal that there have been issues with the mv643xx_eth driver in the past.

However, again the connection could only be made when forcing the Mac's NIC to 100 Mb/s.

I was able to enable the DHCP-server (bootpd) on my 2011 MacBook Pro and use it to connect to the Storcenter via a single Ethernet cable. Unfortunately the only other router I own is a Airport Express, which only has a 100 Mb/s Ethernet port. I tried different cables, confirmed the cables connecting at 1 Gb/s with the R7000 using another machine, and tried to force the NIC into a 1 Gb/s connection using both ethtool and mii-tool all to no avail. I was hoping that somebody with more know-how ?) could help me with this issue. However, one thing has been bothering me for quite a while now I am unable to connect the Storcenter at 1Gb/s to my R7000 (running dd-wrt). Installing Archlinuxarm has really put the life back into this aging NAS-box. I'm on the latest kirkwood-dt kernel using the kirkwood-iomega_ix2_200.dts overlay. I own an Iomega Storcenter ix2-200 and installed Archlinuxarm following the instructions posted by Sven Kiljan at notably those on the headless preparation (i.e., not via TTL).
